A pick links to a full player career page when this site carries one; picks without a career page here are plain text. Club codes are era-correct: this draft’s clubs display under the code of the identity they carried that June, and picks awarded as free-agent compensation carry a “via” note naming the originating club. Bonuses are the amounts reported at the time, never inflation-adjusted, and a blank bonus means the source reported none.
